How do i go about getting a "Dumped Car"

[visionz]

haha never mind mate.. cheers anyway tho.. i just filled out a V5C to register myself as registered owner.. altho it has blatently been dumped.. i dont wonna risk gettin done 4 theft.. alto i could tow it to my brothers work storage area.. he does scafholding and they keep all their shit on this farm.. mite rob it and take it there till docs arrive.. and if the coppers ask where its gone.. "ffs i wanted that car.. i applied for the log book and everything!!.."

Progress Report:
I rang a mate to see how he went about getting the dumped BMW he picked up and mentioned the car i was trying to get to him.. he told me he knew who has previously owned the car.. i went to the pub of the bloke who owned it.. and the manager told me that the land lord had sold it on.. getting a name tomorrow.. bingo!

A 320 with a cracked head, free still sounds expensive !

contact the dvla and ask if it registered by any one. If not fill the form at your post office and get a copy of the V5, contact your local council and state that you can remove it free of charge. If you do just take it you can be done for theft by finding

Rite.. here she is.. basicly i rang a mate who knew who owned it.. i went to them and they had sold it on.. so i went to the garage that it had been sold to and gave the bloke 150 quid and he gave me the car.. It's got pleanty of service stamps, receipts, old mots, old tax discs.. The car has EW, ESR, Head Lamp Washers, Cruise Control etc etc.. gonna fix her next weekend hopefully.. here's some pics after i tidied her up a bit..

I can take it, i drive an m20b20, i'm used to it

ask davetourng what lump took more hammering before expiring- reckon its 2x b25 to 1x b20 and that was only swapped out

I have fixed much more sick 325s with cracked heads than 320s, only because the 320s weren't worth fixing !
